General DescriptionThe Radar Training System is still the only real radar trainer that operates safely inside a classroom or lab, demonstrating that the technical advancement achieved by this system has been unequalled since. The computer-based control of the radar’s processing and display functions ensures it will continue to be a leading-edge pedagogical product for many years to come.
The system uses patented technology to provide students with real — not simulated — hands-on experience in the use of radar to detect and track passive targets at very short range in the presence of noise and clutter. The very low transmitter power allows for safe operation in a variety of training environments.
Many features make this a unique training system. A powerful, computer-based data monitoring system allows for easy study of the first stage in Moving Target Detection (MTD) processing. Students work with a realistic, high-gain parabolic antenna for high azimuth (angular) resolution. The system includes all necessary instrumentation tools.
The Radar Training System consists of seven subsystems (Models 8096-1 to 8096-8). Subsystems 8096-1 to 8096-3 provide students with hands-on training in the principles and operation of analog and digital radar, as well as radar tracking systems. Subsystem 8096-4 adds an active jamming pod trainer to the system to train students in the principles and scenarios of Electronic War fare (EW). Subsystem 8096-5 is a sophisticated pulse-mode, radar cross-section (RCS) measurement training system with inverse synthetic-aperture radar (ISAR) imagery capability that is specifically designed for operation at close range. Subsystem 8096-6 provides students with training in the principles of electronically steered antennas. Finally, subsystem 8096-8 introduces students to the basic principles and operation of synthetic aperture radar (SAR).

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Training System – Add-On to 8096-A592583 (8096-B0)
The Synthetic-Aperture Radar (SAR) Training System adds on to the RCS and ISAR Measurement Training System, Model 8096-A, to form a synthetic aperture radar that can produce high-resolution images. This system introduces students to the basic principles and operation of synthetic aperture radar (SAR).
The SAR Training System synthesizes a large aperture antenna through motion of a small-aperture (low-directivity) horn antenna. Motion of the horn antenna is achieved using the
Target Positioning System, Model 9607-1, included in the Basic Radar Training System, Model 8069-1, and an

antenna-motion control module (SAR controller). Target radar echoes produced during a complete antenna scan are sampled and stored in the SAR processor then processed using a range Doppler algorithm to obtain high-resolution SAR images.
The SAR Training System consist of SAR processing and imagery software included in the LVRTS software, a SAR controller module, the necessary cables and accessories, and a system user guide. Note that RTM 9431-2 from the Radar Processor/Display add-on is required to use this add-on. Reflective scale models of aircraft that can be used with the SAR Training System are optionally available. See Optional Equipment for Models 8096-A and 8096-B.

Equipment Description
SAR Controller 581970 (9614-00)
The SAR Controller allows motion control of the small-aperture horn antenna installed on the moveable carriage of the Target Positioning System (Model 9607-1) when the Basic Radar Training System (Model 8096-1) is used as a synthetic aperture radar. Antenna motion commands are received from the SAR Processor (RCS/ISAR Processor, Model 9611 equipped with the LVSAR software) via a USB port connection. The SAR controller also ensures that the radar echo signal acquisition is
properly synchronized with the horn antenna motion. The SAR Controller is provided with an LED indicator that lights up when faulty operating conditions are detected in the Target Positioning System. A reset button on the SAR Controller allows normal operating conditions to be restored.
Synthetic Aperture Radar Software
The Synthetic Aperture Software is a Windows®-based application that implements a powerful SAR processing unit that produces SAR images from the target echo signals acquired during a scan of the small-aperture horn antenna over the complete aperture length. The Software is also an intuitive user interface that provides all the controls and settings required to operate the Synthetic Aperture Radar as well as to display fine SAR images.

Dual Function Generator (Optional) 581549 (9402-10)
The Dual Function Generator consists of two independent function generators (A and B), each capable of generating a sine-wave signal, a square-wave signal, a triangular-wave signal, a sawtooth-wave signal, and a pulse signal with variable pulse-width. The signal frequency can be varied from 10 Hz to 100 kHz through four
ranges. A digital display is pushbutton-selectable between generators A and B to monitor the frequency of each generator. Each generator output signal level is continuously variable and may be attenuated by push button-selected switch attenuators. TTL output signals are provided to synchronize external equipment, such as an oscilloscope. Generator A may be frequency-modulated by a signal from generator B or from an external source.
The module is fully protected against short circuits and misconnections. Students use the instruments to make measurements in laboratory experiments performed on AM, FM, and digital communications systems.

Frequency Counter (Optional) 581552 (9403-00)
The Frequency Counter is a direct-counting frequency counter with an 8-digit display. The frequency counter has three functions: it determines the frequency of the input signal and displays the frequency in Hz, kHz, or MHz, it determines the period of the
input signal and displays the period in s or ms, and it works as an event counter when the counter function is selected. The frequency/period resolution is switch-selectable from 0.1 to 100 Hz (0.1 to 100 ns). As an event counter, each negative-going transition of the input signal adds one to the cumulative count displayed. The input signal may be attenuated by a switch attenuator.
The module is fully protected against short circuits and misconnections. Students use the instruments to make measurements in laboratory experiments performed on AM, FM, and digital communications systems.
